This is from John Dawes who is having issues posting to IBMMAIN. I only have
the following details
G'Day,
Here is the jcl:
//STEP1 EXEC PGM=ADRDSSU,REGION=0M,TIME=1440,PARM='UTILMSG=YES'
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//BACKUP DD DISP=OLD,DSN=SYS2.STORDSK.BKUP.G0001V00
//COPY1 DD DISP=(,CATLG,DELETE),
// DSN=SYS2.DFDSS.BKUP2,
// UNIT=3490,VOL=(,,,99),DCB=BLKSIZE=32760
//SYSIN DD *
COPYDUMP -
INDD(BACKUP) -
OUTDD(COPY1)
/*
I am trying to copy the tape (which has the default blksize of 262144). I
tried to force a blksize of 32760 so that it would be copied on to DASD in a
later step.
Here is the error message of copying the tape to another tape:
ADR331E (001)-CPYD (01), OUTPUT BLKSIZE 32760 FOR DATA SET ON DDNAME COPY1 IS
SMALLER THAN INPUT BLKSIZE 262144 ADR324E (001)-CPYD (01), THE VOLUME/DATA
SET SPECIFIED BY DDNAME COPY1 HAS BECOME UNUSABLE
The tape dsn does not have a DATACLAS.
I tried a copy of the tape to dasd which didn't work which prompted my first
post. To bypass the problem I tried to copy the tape to another tape with a
blksize of 32760 and encountered the above error.
